Ciao Marcello & Raffaella, I would like to tell you that when we booked this trip we didn't know what to expect but were so looking forward to it; well it exceeded our expectations...

Dear Marcello, Raffaella, and Francesca,
Thank you all again for a beautiful day yesterday. You were so gracious and lovely, and we had a wonderful day with you all. 

Dear Marcello, Raffaella and Francesca.  
What we had intended to receive was a 'cooking class', what we received instead was "the joy of the experience"  which you and the entire family provided.  

Dear Marcello, Raffaella & Francesca,
Our cooking adventure with you is an experience beyond compare. I cannot stop raving about our day in Bologna to my family and friends.

Dear Friends,
We can't thank you enough for the marvelous time we had with you in Bologna.  Although we had many wonderful experiences during our weeklong trip to Italy, our day and evening with you and your family was truly a highlight.  

Dear All,
We are still recovering from our wonderful WONDERFUL meal on Saturday! We had such a tremendous day with you, but our most favorite experience was sharing dinner with your family. It was so special and something we will never forget! 

To my wonderful new friends - Marcello, Raffaella and Francesca:
I wanted to thank you so much for the wonderful day spent with you shopping, tasting, drinking, learning, cooking & eating.  You brought Bologna & its cuisine alive in a very loving and personal way.  

The cooking class with Marcello, Raffaella & Francesca was the best part of our trip to Italy! 
They made my sister and I feel like we were a part of the family.  

Dear Raffaella,

thank you for opening up your home to me. I had a wonderful time spending a day with your family as you taught me....

I have traveled with Bluone three times and loved each trip. Marcello and Raffaella are warm, friendly, caring and delightful people, not to mention totally knowledgeable about the areas visited and Italian food and cooking.  

The trip was fantastic. My older, teen-age son and I had a great chance to bond while enjoying the beauty and learning about the great wines of Piedmont.

Good morning Marcello and Rafaella,
Finally I have sat down to write you a note and tell you what a wonderful time Kerry, Spiroula and I  had on our trip to  Italy with you!!

My husband and I just returned from our second tour with Marcello and Raffi. The first time we went we did the vegetarian tour in Emilia Romagna and it was fabulous as you can read in my comments from 2003.
